Boy Scout Advancement Opportunities

We are always looking for opportunities for Scouts to Advance. This year's Eternal Flame is no exception. We are going to make available a Merit Badge Weekend. For this to be successful, we will need the assistance of Merit Badge Counselors throughout the Pioneer District and beyond. Those of you up for the task, I ask that you gear the requirements to the theme of the weekend. For example, if a Scout is working on the Journalism Merit Badge, they should get interviews from the "survivors" of the airplane crash event. If a scout is working on the Photography Merit Badge, they should take pictures of the "crash scene." Wi-Fi will be available, if Scouts need to access to the Internet. For research purposes only!

This is a great opportunity for Scouts interested in working on a merit badge they might not otherwise be able tooIt will be really be helpful if each Troop interested in participating in any of the Merit Badges, fill out the form below and send it back to us ASAP. That way we can make sure there is a Merit Badge Counselor for those interested.
